EL BÁCULO DEL OBISPO: Las vocaciones son la llave de la puerta a los sacramentos

By Obispo James R. Golka

Bishop James R. Golka 0 225

Jesús convocó a los Doce y les dio poder y autoridad para expulsar a toda clase de demonios y para curar las enfermedades. Y los envió a proclamar el Reino de Dios y a sanar a los enfermos”. – Lucas 9, 1-2

Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo,

Es habitual que, durante las liturgias, un obispo lleve la mitra ceremonial. La mitra es un símbolo de autoridad. Es importante señalar que esta autoridad no significa: “Yo soy tu jefe y tú haces lo que yo digo”. Es una autoridad mucho mejor que esa. Esta es la autoridad que Jesús dio a los apóstoles y a la Iglesia (¡es decir, a nosotros!) para actuar en su nombre

WOODLAND PARK. The Knights of Columbus are out for blood — in the best possible way.

Their bimonthly blood drive, held at Our Lady of the Woods Church, has seen remarkable growth in 2023. Where 2022 was consistently around 70 donors per drive, that number went to 76 in March before skyrocketing to 94 in May, 106 in July and 122 in September.

THE BISHOP'S CROZIER: Vocations are the Key to the Sacramental Door

By Bishop James R. Golka

Bishop James R. Golka 0 165

He summoned the Twelve and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases, and he sent them to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal [the sick].” – Luke 9:1-2

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

It is common for a bishop during liturgies to wear the “miter,” or ceremonial headdress. The miter is a symbol of authority. It is important to note that this authority does not mean, “I am your boss, and you do what I say.” It is a much better authority than that. This is the authority that Jesus gave the apostles and the Church (that is us!) to act in his name.
